Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

Any info on when spring discounts will be offered??

There probably won't be any because I'm going in spring this time instead of fall.

Or probably won't be any for my exact dates only.

Does anyone know if Saana breakfast is counter service & if you can get it to go?

That’s awful. We have flown in for spring break before COVID and no crowd, got right on bus... Uber has to be getting some good business from this.

I read that a good number of out of work cast members turned to Uber/Lyft/Instacart/etc. to try to bring in some money while they were furloughed. It would be nice if there was a way to request a cast member when you order an Uber.

What would stop every single Uber/Lyft driver from saying they’re an ex-CM to get those fares? While nice as an idea, it would never work. No way a 3rd party company is going to publicize some of their employees over others.

Oh I know it wouldn't work. I was just saying it would be nice. I would love to be able to help out a CM that way.

Yes, Sanaa breakfast is quick service and you can get it to go. They have a mix of hot stuff to order and grab and go items. The issues we had in early August were long lines and only one person running the register who also made the coffee drinks...so even when DH was just trying to buy grab and go items he had a long wait.

Someone posted this in one of my fb groups. Guess he just arrived into MCO and this is the line for the magical express Not sure how far back this is, I usually use a private transportation of Uber/Lyft

Omg...I have NEVER in all my years and countless trips of always using ME have ever seen a line for ME checkin even half that... what in the world is happening...I'm assuming cuts, cuts, cuts...but does not make me feel great about arriving tomorrow.

We had a line that long once when a Latin American tour group all unloaded from one plane during a busy time. Evidently they arrived half an hour before us since they all had their luggage and there were probably 200 of them.

Good news, the NBA postseason has ended today. "Hey Lakers you just won the NBA Finals what are you gonna do next?" "We're getting the heck outta Disney World!!!!"

 

[gottalovepluto]

@yulilin3 I recall you mentioned rehearsals were going on for Indy, heard/seen anything else on that front?

Cinderella's Castle lit up purple and Gold for the occasion (not a Lakers fan but it does look pretty)

In all of our many trips using DME there was one trip where it was lined up probably 200’ before the initial CMs. It was a shock when we arrived but it only took about 30ish mins to get onto a bus. A small amount of delay on travel day.

It can happen as do lines everywhere. We just took a deep breath and reminded ourselves we had our whole trip in front of us unlike the guests the drivers were dropping off before picking us up!

 

[GlowTheWeird]

Oh. My. Lord. I'd be Ubering for sure!

We took the magical express from MCO last week and there was zero line so it must be luck as certain times of the day. We arrived weekday at 3pm.

It’s fall break for a lot of schools. It’s always busy this time of year.

 

[AmberMV]

Okay!! I just spent about 2 hours skimming the last ~month and ~150 pages. As per usual, lots of ups and downs and laughs and sad faces, and now it's time for bed. We have no idea then on when 50th anniversary bookings will open next Fall?

I heard we're about to start, haven't heard anything since
